Dataset
A test score that has been standardized over time and across various international and regional mathematics assessments taken at the secondary school level. It is calculated by creating a ratio between U.S. secondary math scores on international tests (such as PISA and TIMSS) to secondary math scores on the U.S. National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) approximated to the nearest 5-year time step from 1965-2010. All raw secondary math international scores are approximated to the nearest 5-year interval, averaged, and then multiplied by this ratio. This makes these adjusted scores comparable over time, across countries and across international tests. Secondary math test scores from countries which only participate in regional assessments are included in the above transformation after being multiplied by a ratio comparing average secondary math scores in a given regional test and secondary math scores on an international assessment for all doubloon countries - countries which participate in the same regional assessment and an international test. This makes adjusted secondary math test scores comparable over across time, over countries and over all assessments.
